The Naked Fun in The Superhero Cinematic Civil War Thread - Part 61

The most likely answer for the project is probably a JLI style film. But I don't know how you do that before you do JL.

But they have the characters. Clark, Kara, Terrific, Guy, Hawkgirl, Metamorpho, Peacemaker.

Thinking about box office, and it turned my mind to Supergirl. If the double secret project Gunn is working on is a Superman/Supergirl combined sequel, might be a good idea to announce it in the lead up to Supergirl. Use a nice bit of that Superman goodwill.

It'd be nice if it was. I'd like to spend as much time with the Superfamily before the Batfamily comes into play.

Lena Thorul better make her debut, Gunn!

Remember when Peter mastered surface tension in the comics... I wish we get it one day.

Saw Superman...

Spoiler

I wasn't really a big fan of the Top Gun Maverick style opening crawl. Pointless.

This was easily the most "comic booky" Superman movie we've gotten to date. A mix of 80s and 90s post-crisis comics and pre-crisis silver age trappings and concepts. I love that all Clark has of Jor-El and Lara is old footage and jumbled up messages. It gives the destruction of Kyrpton more weight when everyone who didn't get off of it before it exploded is dead dead. So ultimately Clark has no way to know the whole truth or get a complete picture.

Mr. Terrific absolutely stole the show.

This is the best movie Lex Luthor we've ever gotten. I really hope in the next movie he beats the rap and is still running LuthorCorp. I love Lex more as an untouchable rich guy, and we got more stories to tell with that.

David Corenswet was great. This Superman is young and idealistic. He feels much more human than Cavill ever felt as the character.

Rachel Brosnan... I want her to play Lois Lane for the next 15 to 20 years.

All and all, I want to see more of this DC universe. It feels lived in and right out of the comics.

What's Jimmy's Tinder profile again?

Part of me will wonder what kind of chaos Kpop Demon Hunters would have thrown into the Superjurassic 4 month. Yes, I know there are a whole lot of what if variables that would have changed, But I see the evidence of it being super popular, and just kind of wonder...

What was the narrative about the prospects of the DC universe when MOS released? Reading that it made $670 million and had an A- cinemascore seems pretty positive.

The bad reviews and bad weekly drops at the box office killed its narrative.

Hiring Goyer and Snyder did that.

Watched the FF "Super powers" ad, thinking, maybe Marvel wouldn't be still be embarressed of Reed's powers in this. Nope.

Instead, I am now worried RDJ Doom is going to go full Onslaught and Franklin will end up Heroes Reborning the MCU in Secret Wars....

Same energy:

LOL, I've never seen that before. That's beautiful.

Most of my thumbs up in this thread are also meant to be laughing emojis, if only I could do that on mobile.

 

[Spider-Fan]

I think the FF ads recently have been great. They're very aggressively marketing it now. Ya love to see it

Some of yall are all about "Release the Schumacher cut of Batman Forever!" But you know what I am more interested in? Superman IV: Restored Cut! They cut like 30 mins of that movie and while that movie is complete garbage and wasn't even finished, I want to see that movie properly restored with the new footage added back in. How can we start THAT grass roots movement?

I’ve got time for both!!! Let’s gooooo!!!!

I'm all in for the Schumacher Cut of Batman Forever but Superman IV?

There are a couple of worse comic book movies out there but Superman IV has got to be the worst one featuring a major IP character.

It's bad, but it's also Christopher Reeve's last performance in the role. So it should be restored IMO

I feel like if you gave some YouTuber a budget of several thousand dollars they could probably polish up the effects and editing of that movie to make it look a lot better.
